The SOBO iQ features three-state digital modulation, an industry first in a braking system, and a revolutionary
dual-loop PI control (pressure/speed). The pressure control is based not only on speed but also on
deceleration. SOBO iQ controls braking torque by comparing a preset speed ramp with actual conveyor
speed feedback. The unit can provide different braking profiles for different operational scenarios. Advanced
functions including independent overspeed monitoring, rollback, gear monitoring and out-of-band monitoring
are included.

The SOBO iQ provides only the torque needed for a safe, controlled stop. The new controller can be used with
a combination of brake types, mounted on both the high and low speed sides of the conveyor drive. Up to
4 HPUs can be connected to each controller. The new iQ is four times faster than previous generations and
features fail-safe hardware based on 2-stage backup, and a defined communication failure behavior. Remote
access is possible and an optional touch screen is available for setup and monitoring.
